Chapter 79 Unexpected Place
The New York Times reporters waiting in Naples did not have to wait long, and the grain was quickly reloaded on a smaller freighter. The reporters originally wanted to get close to the sailors on these ships to find out the specific inside story, where they came from, and where they were going to transport these things. It's a pity that these people like to ignore her questions. It's not that the female reporters are not attractive enough, but that these people seem to be extremely wary of outsiders.
Many of the items unloaded from the ship were white metal blocks. After inquiry, the reporter learned that these were aluminum ingots, a primary industrial raw material made from aluminum after electrolysis. These aluminum ingots also did not wait long on the pier, and they were quickly loaded onto several Suez-class freighters, which seemed to be going through the Suez Canal.
The female reporter can only grasp so much at the pier. These new ships belong to a Turkish shipping company. This shipping company is not open to ordinary tourists, so the reporter cannot continue to trace by taking a boat. The clues are only Can stop here.
The intern female reporters of the New York Times were already unable to do what they wanted for the next investigation. They sorted out the materials they had in hand and sent them to the newspaper and Zoe in Somalia. After seeing the materials, Zoe left immediately Somalia, fly to Turkey, Istanbul.
Zoe has some connections in Turkey. He has a college classmate who is also a reporter and works as a foreign correspondent for the Turkish bureau of the Associated Press. When Zoe found him, he joined the investigation of the grain smuggling case without saying a word.
With the help of her friends, Zoe quickly found the specific news of the shipping company in the ship registration files of the Turkish Maritime Department. When Zooey's friend saw the owner of the freight company, he couldn't help but gasped.
"What's the matter? Did you find anything?" Zoe couldn't read Turkish, so he could only rely on his friends to translate for him.
"The owner of this company is called Abdul Ketli. This guy is very famous in Istanbul. He is an important member of the local mafia! And his background is very deep. They have an extraordinary relationship with the Turkish military. !" Zooey's friend whispered in Zooey's ear.
"I guessed it, every institution here is not simple! Then is there no way for us to track down?" Zoe asked deliberately pretending to be lost.
"How come, I definitely have a solution! But, Zooey, since you have found me in this matter, can I also participate in it! I think this clue of yours must be a big news, maybe this year Pulitzer Prize..." Zoe's friend said with a smile, he could see the value behind this matter, and he didn't want to miss an opportunity to become famous.
"Okay, I agree, but all the reports on this news require me to be the first signatory,
This is my rule! "Zoe said politely.
"Deal!" Zooey and his friend Jimmy touched their palms to conclude the deal. In the next few days, Zoe and Jimmy began to plan how to continue to track the whereabouts of these freighters. Jimmy called the Turkish Maritime Department to verify the whereabouts of the cargo ships photographed in Italy by the trainee reporter of the New York Times. They were lucky, and a freighter temporarily docked at the pier in Istanbul due to a breakdown.
"I have a bold idea?" Zoe announced to Jimmy.
"No...no, I know what you're going to say, don't think about it!" Jimmy immediately understood what Zooey meant, and he immediately refused without hesitation.
"Hey, bro! Think about our Pulitzer Prize, man! How can you get a tiger if you don't go to the tiger's den?" Zoe urged.
"Zoe, I don't think you look like a woman at all, you are definitely a man!" Jimmy teased, and when it comes to the Pulitzer Prize, Jimmy is willing to do anything.
"Okay, now think about how we can sneak onto this cargo ship?" Jimmy asked again.
"It shouldn't be difficult to get two sets of uniforms for this shipping company! Let's pretend to be staff members, sneak in and live on board!" Zoe replied without hesitation.
Over the next few days, Jimmy and Zoe stepped up preparations for their life on board while monitoring the news of the cargo ship being maintained at the pier. Jimmy managed to get two sets of uniforms of the shipping company to which the cargo ship belonged. When they were ready, they quietly climbed into the cargo ship that was in port for maintenance due to malfunctions one night. The security on the pier is not strict, so even if Jimmy and Zoe are laymen, they can easily catch them.
Zoe and Jimmy quickly found a safe hiding place, a utility room on the deck with windows to look out and plumbing for their drinking water problems. The most important thing is that the locks here are rusty and look like they have been forgotten.
Zoe and Jimmy stayed here, and two days later, the freighter also finished its rest and set sail again. Zoe and Jimmy stayed alone in the cabin, and they had to do some affectionate actions. The two had a good relationship when they were classmates. There were no entertainment activities in this narrow space. The two broke through naturally. over that barrier.
The only entertainment for Jimmy and Zoe on the boat is to have sex. Besides, they will also guess where the destination of the ship is. The only connection between them and the outside world is the small window in the cabin. This small window does not allow them to judge their position through the astronomical phenomena. Just when the two were still worried about whether the voyage would be too long. A week later, they actually saw seagulls on the window of the cabin.
"Look at Jimmy, it's a seagull, we're about to land!" Zoe said excitedly, pointing at the little seagull on the window.
"Really, really fast! I..." Jimmy wanted to say that he hadn't had enough of this, but he realized that it was important. Jimmy has already decided that when he is done with this matter, he will find an opportunity to formally confirm the relationship with Zoe.
The two of them lay expectantly on the small window of the cabin, and looked at the scenery outside curiously. They could clearly feel that the speed of the ship was slowing down, and they should be preparing to dock. At this moment, a flash of bright red floated in front of the eyes of the two of them, and the two of them were frightened dumbfounded. Because they saw that the red thing had a sickle and a hammer printed on it, as well as a five-pointed star.
"Damn it, this is the Soviet Union!" Zoe and Jimmy said silently in their hearts.
